Mountain Pine Beetle Cure Kits
The powerful combination of Safari 20SG Insecticide and Pentra-bark bark penetrating surfactant have demonstrated remarkable success curing pine trees attacted by Mountain Pine Beetle if applied in time. Our studies have shown this combination when applied within 30 to 45 days post initial MPB attack has provided nearly a 90% curative rate in Ponderosa pines. Manufacturers studies have shown equal success in Lodgepole pines.
